Hello, This may be a feature that many people wouldn't use, but it would help us a lot. Background We use the blueprints function heavily in our organization, which helps when we need quick fixes or larger updates to materials. Our programs, which tend to last months rather than days like our classes, include a lot of…
I have been getting this message on my iPad canvas app for a few months whenever I try to open a file. It seems like I’m the only one in my class as everyone is getting on fine. Files used to open fine on my phone and now my phone canvas app has stopped working. What does this mean? How can I get rid of it.
I don't understand how the system decides on the sorting for the TERM menu in Course Settings. Does anyone know how to make this sort sensibly? It isn't alphabetic, it isn't based on date the Term was created and it doesn't mirror the Admin page order. It also doesn't seem to use the SIS ID for Terms (though, these have…

A student is reporting that discussion board due dates are not showing up in their To Do list, while assignment due dates are showing up. The due dates are set for the discussion boards in the course. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know how to fix it?
Why on earth would Canvas change this feature? The comments within the same assignment allowed me to see the conversation with my student, allowed me to see what I had already typed to them, and we could communicate this way. Now I have no idea what I wrote previously - I have to go up and click on as many submissions as…
Has anyone found gaps in their course analytics ? I'm currently seeing missing last view date, last participation date, and participations at overall course level, even though the same data is present at individual week and student level. Am also seeing truncated asset counts ie we are seeing only the global header counts,…
